Constructor Details

#initialize(url, client_name = Chef::Config[:node_name], signing_key_filename = Chef::Config[:client_key], options = {}) ⇒ REST

Create a REST client object. The supplied url is used as the base for all subsequent requests. For example, when initialized with a base url localhost:4000, a call to get_rest with ‘nodes’ will make an HTTP GET request to localhost:4000/nodes

#fetch(path, headers = {}) ⇒ Object

Streams a download to a tempfile, then yields the tempfile to a block. After the download, the tempfile will be closed and unlinked. If you rename the tempfile, it will not be deleted. Beware that if the server streams infinite content, this method will stream it until you run out of disk space.

#get_rest(path, raw = false, headers = {}) ⇒ Object

Send an HTTP GET request to the path

Using this method to fetch a file is considered deprecated.

Parameters

path

The path to GET

raw

Whether you want the raw body returned, or JSON inflated. Defaults

to JSON inflated.

#register(name = Chef::Config[:node_name], destination = Chef::Config[:client_key]) ⇒ Object

Register the client – Requires you to load chef/api_client beforehand. explicit require is removed since most users of this class have no need for chef/api_client. This functionality should be moved anyway…

#run_request(method, url, headers = {}, data = false, limit = nil, raw = false) ⇒ Object

DEPRECATED

Use api_request instead – Actually run an HTTP request. First argument is the HTTP method, which should be one of :GET, :PUT, :POST or :DELETE. Next is the URL, then an object to include in the body (which will be converted with .to_json). The limit argument is unused, it is present for backwards compatibility. Configure the redirect limit with #redirect_limit= instead.

Typically, you won’t use this method – instead, you’ll use one of the helper methods (get_rest, post_rest, etc.)

Will return the body of the response on success.

#streaming_request(url, headers, &block) ⇒ Object

Makes a streaming download request. Doesn’t speak JSON. Streams the response body to a tempfile. If a block is given, it’s passed to Tempfile.open(), which means that the tempfile will automatically be unlinked after the block is executed.

If no block is given, the tempfile is returned, which means it’s up to you to unlink the tempfile when you’re done with it.
